My mom was really unwell earlier in the week due to the accumulation of so much fluid in her body, we spoke to the Oncology nurses & managed to get a hospital bed so the fluid could be drained. Yesterday, as they were draining the fluid my mom started to drift as vitals dropped dramatically & continued to do even after they stopped. They kept getting her back. Mom’s now signed a DNR.
The hospital are going to try & take the rest of the fluid this afternoon but I’m worried she’s going to die. I don’t want her to suffer anymore but I also don’t want her to go.
I can’t sleep at the minute so I’m on day 3 of 3 hours sleep per night so I’m exhausted/emotional which isn’t helping.
This disease is cruel & I’m angry but also so sad.
